[PATCH] x86,kgdb: Always initialize the hw breakpoint attribute
in [Kernel]

Prev: [PATCH 6/6] driver core: Implement ns directory support for device classes.
Next: x86,kgdb: Always initialize the hw breakpoint attribute
From: Jason Wessel on 30 Mar 2010 14:50 It is required to call hw_breakpoint_init() on an attr before using it in any other calls. This fixes the problem where kgdb will sometimes fail to initialize on x86_64.
